Lyrics You Are (Apophasis) - Gabriel Carter

Your presence
Is not the absence of fire
Though some would think it so
And your peace
Is not the absence of storms
It's the anchor in the boat

And your comfort
Is not the absence of pain
But that your grace still remains
Oh and your joy
Is not the absence of sorrow
But knowing the morning's
My happy ending

How great you are
To be who you are
Even in the midst of
Even in the midst of
You are
You are

Your hope
Is not the absence of struggle
But a promise that endures
And faith in you
Is not the absence of trials
It's knowing you more each day

And safety in you
Is not the absence of danger
For you're with me in the den
And loving you
Is not the absence of sin
But receiving all you are

How great you are
To be who you are
Even in the midst of
Even in the midst of
You are
You are
How great you are
